SA outlook remains upbeat

The resilience of the San Antonio economy – a dependable theme over the last several years -has been reaffirmed by the newest economic report from the city’s department of economic development.

Steven Nivin, the department’s chief economist, cited two new measures – one showing the area’s unemployment rate is well below the 5-year unemployment average and another indicating that there is a small chance house prices in San Antonio will be lower in two years – in arguing that the local economy remains “pretty strong.”
